which was not the case as far as i remember in slands
but nobody really knows they havent said
zzzz
for me were 30m the longest and the average 15m
i sat in a 45m queue an hour ago then didnt realize id accidently queued for a bg as well
so just ran back to my pc and clicked accept queue
baited into a eye of the storm that was a 12 vs 15

XD
happens, sometimes i missclick for skirmishes
F
tbh the one thing i will say is as much damage as arms does, unlike pally i actually feel people actively kiting me vs alot of caster comps
so thats probably why it hasnt eaten any nerfs
on ret getting kited is just like omegalul
ur 10 yards away? who cares
thats my full rotation baby
but ret queues r still more dead then warr
ret is like a semi ranged spec
its absurd
i have killed ppl w 100k veredicts in range
20 yard range nuke
on a melee
uglytotem
it was a dwarf I had to
Starting to learn how to do my rotation properly
as Warrior
Almost doubling my DPS 
I hate that
I had to play Rogue really well to climb into 1800 range
and im barely starting to optimize my rotation for warrior
at the same range
Yeah
rn the biggest thing
is stacking multipliers
to consistently do 50k to 100k noncrits
so when I crit
it doubles hard
cant wait to see how stupid it gets
w. 4p lol
changed xmog
ugh im so sad i missed out on pandaria and those CM skins
the only expac I didnt play a single season of
the weapon was wod though
is a t3
was it wod? what was it from?
i didnt even know there was CM in wod
i only joined late in the expac
coulda gotten it then zzz
wod was a pretty forgotten xp dont worry
i was just getting back into wow casually
seems u are getting fun anyways
well can confirm another thing
leap panda racial interaction is clunky unless u land to floor
think i'll just charge to the healer, cc and then leap back
hunter 2000 achieved 
gratz
got an assa bragging against me
and mocking me by /w between rounds
he ended 2-4 kek
complained at me cuz i said to him "decide a fkn target"
cuz just was running around hitting everything
Survival Hunter managed
okay so basically
someone posted
some graphs and found out that sub rogue is worst spec at everything
check this out
a 41 winrate come on
It has felt infinitely easier on one of my rogues around 2k than 1700
We know it’s a spec that relies on others more for it to shine, but cc reduc and lowered burst in 10.1 will make it interesting for sure 😂
Kinda sad to look at ngl
But sub is best at cc, right guys?

Also according to the last screenshot, outlaw has by far the highest win rate among rogue specs 😄
"Surely rogues need nerf."
Man I went to the forums and lost a few brain cells, but I'm starting to understand their dialect
"X class is fine" and it's not their main = the class is trash and they can deal with it with their eyes closed.
"X class is fine" and it is their main = S tier and borderline unfair.
"X class is fine but maybe we can do with a minor 3-5% nerf" = using the class is considered to be a warcrime in multiple countries.
so what are y'all rerolling to
To whatever zugzug is dominating after the first two weeks.
Paladin, Warrior, Hunter, and DK
Gonna play rogue no matter what
then 1 or 2 spec that can make you feel less willing to throw computer away
I miss the old days of sub, I'm praying with my heart and soul that they are working on reworking it
Is there a rogue dev in here? Will he listen to our pleas?
if i pull out a pet from my pet journal collection and stealth can people see it? or is it better to never play with pets
I recommend playing with pets irl 😄
No, enemies will not see your pet. Summoning your pet will break Stealth, though.
ah ok tysm
@tribal badger just noticed after some games as a dumbass which mortal strike is the highest priority overall as warr, i just spammed execute instead lol
tbh that graph is BS
Cause i do sub rouge
and it slaps
i have even taken over 2 at the same time
maybe people dont know how to play sub
oh good, not even 1000 rating yet and im already losing 50+ rating for going 3/3. i love solo shuffle... im never getting these freaking saddles.
is it possible to setup keyboard only keybindings that will work in pvp for sub rogue?
That graph is only made up of players that use arenalogs, so it’s going to be skewed no matter what. But sub definitely does not slap right now, at all.
maybe not like other classes but if you know how to play it well you can slap.
Idk I 100% disagree
Sure you can win games if you’re a good player, and you can pad the meter a little with rupture. But sub is arguably one of the worst specs in the game rn
Wdym?
sub doesnt have "kill" potential like other specs do unless things align properly. but im always top damage in ss without rupture padding.
Its not an easy spec and you have plan more, its not like playing a ret or a hunter. But it definetly its not the worse class right now.
class/ spec
like for example i see a lot of the top sub rogue players who have mmo mouses, since i dont want to buy an mmo mouse is it possible to setup keybinds in a way where its only keyboard being used and also effective for pvp?
thats what i meant by "kill" potential. you cant just roll your face across the keyboard and win.
Sure, you’re going to have to use a lot of modifiers though like shift, control and alt
yeah i get it cause when i play ret or ww monk, i feel its a breeze
but i feel its more gratifying when I win with sub cause i know not everybody does really .
im not even glad geared, im mostly aspirant and im doing a lot fo damage. just wish people on my teams would learn how to live so i can do better than 3/6 or 4/6
yeah i feel you
is that hard to use? i havent actually experimented with modifers yet but i just straight up didnt want to cuz i feel like it would complicate things even further
i dont even want to get 2400. i just want to be able to get the saddles to finally get the warstrider. but i cant when i gain 12 points going 4/6, then lose 50 going 3/6
easy
dont lose

tell that to my team mates who die in 2 seconds. the last game i had round 1. i open "ss>rupture" my healers dead.
is it a good idea to have the entire ability bar change when you go into stealth?
thats how it is for me by default but is that a good thing
i have it doing that
ok, is it alright if my stealth abilities are just these?
Can you still gouge and kidney while that bar is there
this is what my main bar looks like, stealth/dance and no stealth.
yea although im gonna actually change it a bit, im gonna move shadowblades and symbols to the no stealth needed bar
I’d suggest having access to all non stealth skills while you are stealth as far as pvp goes
It’s situational. Like say your arena team member is about to get executed you still want to be able to disarm or cc him even if he is DR’d on kidney/cheap
yea setting these bars up is like insanity
ok im having a hard time with this, when i go stealth only one bar is being changed so i find it really hard to know which ones i should be putting into the stealth bar and which ones not to put
There’s no other way to keybind all of your spells in a good set up
My stealth and no stealth bars look identical
and u just keep track of which spells to use/not use mentally?
if so why does the game even change the bar like this
when you go into stealth
Yeah, it’s second nature at this point
The game does it by default, you can turn it off
getting into pvp = brick wall after brick wall
Once you get used to the class and feel for the game it’s all muscle memory really
where do i go to turn it off?
Pvp’s barrier to entry is pretty low right now compared to most other past seasons
Don’t even have to you can drag same skills to both
ok ill just do that
Keybinds and how you set up your UI is just a base MMO thing that you gotta do really
maplestory was easier than this
Like for my sap in my unstealthed bar it is still sap but I macro’d in for that unstealthed sap to stop attacking
So I don’t bust blind
Maple story 
can i have that macro
I think you just add in /stopattack
Some games just require more fine tuning, or have the capability to do more
Before sap
how do u sap unstealthed?
It also puts me into stealth
oh ok
Or idk maybe it’s during dance lol I’d have to go and check I’m not at my cpu
What rating are u currently playing sub at that you think it’s good?
im at 1900
ss
Ya man it does okay at that rating because people are bad once u get above 2400 it’s nightmare
i had glads playing as they wanted w my ret and they died insta
ohhh
well i dont think i will get there this season cause i dont have much time to play
even our r1 here lost a lot of CR after 10.7 tunings
i guess next season i will try to push glad
Legend pennant 👀👀👀
nope
never
i dont even have it keybinded
i have it on a sec tech macro with showtooltip
so i dont even know its there
but its there
wtf is only for legends?
yea same ok
god im lazy af i dont wanna go prot w the ret
is it a good idea to unbind w and s? and purely use mouse to move?
No
Unbind q,w,e tho
And use asd for movement
i have q and e on abilities instead of movement rn
S forward . A and d for strafe
Nope
kk
Pve is the only time you ever really can justify back pedaling
i just use my mouse to rotate backwards really quickly anyway
Just to edge a mechanic real quick
tbh i use movement arrows to run, but mostly mouse
i unbinded turning to the sides and use strife instead
hey guys, learning rogue pvper here. I'm currently at 900 rating. I'm now feeling comfortable with using more advanced keybinds/makros.
I want to know, which keybinds/makros are the most important to learn first? I'm thinking about:
Blind Focus / Arena Target 1,2,3
Shadowstep Focus / Arena Target 1,2,3 + Kick
what about kidney?
maybe i'm just wrong, thats why i ask what should i learn first.
Mainly playing Solo Shuffle.
Currently i'm not working with arena target 1,2,3 or focus.
Two really good ones I use every game: focus blind and focus step kick
You just have to make sure if the target vanishes, or stealths, or uses NE racial or whatever you have to set your focus
I have my blind set up so it either blinds my current target if NO focus, otherwise it blinds focus if I have a focus
Then use step kick on focus to step kick healer casts on a go
how to you set / unset your focus?
because i set it up like this: F = Blind Target; Shift + F = Blind Focus
do you set your focus at the start of the game to the enemy healer then?
to just blind him when needed?
Yeah, I just right click the enemy frame on gladdy and it sets focus. Just set it up to whoever I plan to blind/step kick (usually healer)
Right click on arena frames
Okay
Any time they stealth or meld, it will clear your focus and you will need to focus them again
I bound a Hotkey for that
Question about stealth in arena..
How often should I try to restealth?
Usually I am not doing this at all
Depends on spec
Assa
Uhm a bit, but not too much
YOu usually stealth when your trying to line their damage
Let me ask another way. When it’s a good to do it?
So when you try and kite out enemy cds you can go for a restealth
Can sprint away, step to your healer and line
What do you mean with „line“?
Ok
Typically done when you have no defensives left, but enemy is still pumping out lethal damage.
And then immediately attack again, also because often there are dots on me?
Yes
They silence and do increased damage
So double or even triple garrote sometimes when coming out of stealth if you can
So it’s basically try to get away and often they will use skills ton prevent that (for example warriors charge), kite with knife, restealth and attack
I am usually double garrote, then rupture, then slice and dice if it’s not already up
Not too often. But sometimes yes
You need constant pressure with sin
You dont want to be dropping your bleeds and poisons unless its necessary
So my default opening / out of stealth is garrote + garrote + rupture on target, slice and dice. Then mutilate till 4-5 combo points and envenom
Re stealths aren't to important with sin, but they can be good
Unlike sub where youre constantly looking to reset
Outside of shadow dance windows
What I am unsure about is rampart. I am usually using it when I am on cooldowns, just to maybe reapple rupture but most of the time just to use envenom to deal damage. What’s the best way to use it?
yesterday a rog in multiglad (dunno tf was doing in low cr) just garroted me at stealth so i just stormbolted him at sight
Like you will go for restealths as sin every now and then just organically lining damage
the guy was bragging against me for losing when i called his shit out for constantly switching targets and then lose 2-4
you need to kidney in opener tho
Why?
rampart?
Yeah ok, but this doesn’t happen in my mmr 😛
Echoing
oh reprimand
If you talking about kidney in opening.. so double garrote then kidney?
no
mfd then kidney then garrote then rupture
shiv, then echoing then envenom
the echoing with shiv always lands in 7
Yes sorry
Yeah you want to use your ER's for envenoms
Ok
You can throw up a ER rupture into DM as well
if you are like that boosted multiglad rogue
Or into a exsan but
Should I use ER in between my cooldowns?
then you will ate one stun from my alt
With your cds
Ok
Pretty much always use it
Ok
I wouldn't hold it personally unless for very niche situations
Bone spikes, next topic… when to use this?
Yeah envenom dmg is a joke
bone spike in goes tho, to make pressure
but at least one before in the other dps to get more combo points
Ok
I have 3 bone spikes, should I use it here and there on at least 2 targets?
yes
Okay
And the throwing knives only for kiting / when I am kited, right?
yeah or to align blue combo points
it always awards 1
mut gives 2 and shiv if crit will award more too
Thanks guys! 🙂
@jolly sierra how's warrior playing so far
enjoying it?
or meh
not how good it is, but more if you like playing it
its funny, but i used it like shit cuz i went straight to arenas without watching anything lol
now i checked a streamer and think im going better w dmg, also spear goes brr in low cr lol
i was dumb enough to priorize execute over MS lol
if im a beginner can i just stick to doing the single target rotation in pvp?
and completely ignore the aoe one?
is aoe even useful when it comes to sub pvp
aoe is good for unranked bgs tho
its ok cuz idc about bg
Seal Fate go brrrr
Now whenever I think of spear I see that clip someone posted here, where a guy was bouncing between two spears. Hilarious.
ah i saw that
funny af poor monk doing ping pong
Would suck to be in the same spot, but it's still so funny
yeah lol
not really important
but you can use aoe as sub to get cps quickly in some scenario
dmg of the aoe itself is not important
i see
also the pinned talent tree doesnt have thistle tea in it yet the guide does, which talent tree should i go with? (if noob)
The pins/faq haven’t been updated in a little while
Was just going to wait until 10.1 to do so
More dmg plz
nah they just reduced healing
and made healers tankier

gunna be a wet noodle season fr
gunna be one of those "sick setup dance 1 shot somebody (from 50% hp) in 3 stuns" type seasons
They also increased health pools didn’t they
I assume that’s why the change in primary stat
yes but reduced the stamina dps get from the set bonus to compensate
its a net stamina buff by like
5 or 10%
cant remember
They also increased all incoming dmg in pve
So it only seems fair to increase pvp dmg
Yeah that’s a little odd
Don’t think it will matter very much tho tbh
ok gotcha wat should i do for now
check out murlok.io and see what the most popular talents are being used by the top 50 of whichever spec
there's a link in the pins
ok
Dampen meta for sure
Hoooooly shit is it hard to climb right now lol
just got 5-1 in a match where a hunter only casted autoattack and a monk w 376k hp
so w the monk i just leaped with all the burst and in the hunter waited when he was alone
look, just the pet did the dmg
basically 2set nerfed and 4set buffed?
Yeh
25% to evisc is nice but wish they would just tune our junk up big time or drop a 10% for FW and took out something else at this point
New evoker smokescreen fire bbq grill talent is a smoke bomb that you take 52k damage by walking through. Sickkk
Yep , bUt wE cAn DuEl aNd KiDnEy sHoT
Also the 25% evisc is cut in half in pvp so no change actually
yeah
so, what should we do?
keep lying in floor till we get a real buff class-wise?
So does the 2pc add to symbols we already have and press during our burst?
can be a second one for another dance lol
got one with a MW and died in literal 3s after i leaped over him
and had in the same match a hunt which only autoattacked
Is the 411 honor gear better for pvp than, say 415 pieces in the same slot (non tier)?
0 idea dude. I got no idea what we are gonna do
if they have better stats but otherwise no
Nothing but hero lobbies today
“Do damage rogue” . Only one to get disarmed / stunned / feared/ paralyzed / cycloned etc
Rogues are only good at killing other rogues . That’s about it
is this next seasons change?
Yeah
hello everyone if u want to kill some body in pvp super fast what is better sub or sin or outlaw
typically i'd say sub, but if you're aiming to kill someone like in a single stun none of the specs can really do that atm
Outlaw requires a ton of effort on your end to kill someone
sub is meant to be the burst spec normally, and assa does decent dmg all around but is very squishy
i asummed so xd how dose sin do ?
outlaw like, widdles people down
rip i like outlaw
Your more likely to die 1v1ing as Outlaw than to kill
rogue just doesn't do big burst dmg right now at all
^
not effective enough burst for it to matter anyway
assa's CDs get countered pretty easily
im sure we will see some knee jerky buffs to assa or outlaw
at this point i kinda doubt it, but we'll see
they've only done 5% buffs
in PTR
and only one buff out of back to back nerfs to Outlaw
which was damage increase on Dispatch
every rogue spec has had back to back pvp nerfs
fair
im not saying anytime soon, but eventually
yeah idk, we'll see
i feel like sub is gonna get the wod demo experience lol
GG blizz, great Q&A. I really like it. I like it so much that I made a video about how was my reactions going when I was watching it. If you feel the same disgust as me, feel free to share it.
don't think the rogue community complaining about rogue being bad is going to outweigh the entire wow community complaining about rogue when it is good
ofc, the inmates are running the asylum
wut inmates and asylum?
pvps gonna be mythic plus next season
you mean the entire circus is running the town
So sub next pick 10.1 ?
the funniest thing i've saw in the video is than they are fully aware than noxxic is shit and misinforming players HAHAHAHA
Ikr but to me its too muchof a cc bot and non consistent damage :/
But 10.1 they straight up increased dmg
Pshero show 2 weeks ago his build
on sub rouge
with 2xdance and tea
good dmg

The issue with this spec that I have is that it takes a huge amount of self and mates awereness to be a good pick
Like a bad played sub is the worst thing you can be in pvp
a bad played ret on the other hand is still a threat
i mean right now honestly
not really
like bad melee players tend to los everyone and die 1v3 and no class helps
how bad are we talking tho 
also i think in a perfect reality where sub is fine right now, a bad sub is better than bad assas xd
Well to me view, sub allow little to no mistake pool, because well rogue overall, especially sub is the leader, he picks, he stops, he resets, he decides
So from that, you have a huge responsibility on your own, especially in 3s where mage and you should be on the same page, and msot mages let the rogue take the lead
Not to mention you need tons of pvp experience to be able to lead the arena, whereas a braindead warrior or DK or another cleave bot will just roll in and dps
The Assassination approach a I see it, is way more constant damage focus, less cc to care about and more pool to time your attacks, as your burst windows aren't that brutal
10days away. Back to rated solo later and trying to hit that elite as outlaw. Looks like unholy DK got big dmg buff since. Maybe I’d have a better chance getting my DK there 😂
spending the next 10 days leveling each melee to 70
And play the one that’s most broken 😅
Good plan haha
Literally me rn
Gonna try to also squeeze 1.8k minimum on the warrior next week
ugh need to hit max on my hunter
and gear up my priest
only 2 classes left to unlock the mog on
🙏
i guess i could set up disc on my priest for fast queues
should be an easy way to knock it out
I’m probably going to just pay for my hunter to get level boosted to 70
But level ret myself to get a feel for the rework
Yeah I’ve been doing TW on the warr a couple times a night past couple days
its like ~0.8 levels per dungeon and the dungeons r so fast if u get a good tank
Yeah I’ve had a couple groups that just re queue at the end
im sure theres actual groups for it
And do a few runs together
man you are on warrior as well?
wait so despite all the ret nerfs, theyre still #1?
casters do really well in a dampen meta
lock buffs look crazy
yeah tbh playing a lock alt seems to be nice now
and it seems all three specs of lock are good
so even if 1 or 2 got nerfed
still could be quite good
How about hunter btw? Is it still good?
hunter is very good now imo
How are they into ret tho? Getting mixed signals for that.
it's hard to say, also bm and marksman and surival are quite different
bm at the moment can deal okay dmg, in basically whatever scenario
and can do great and long cc on healer like every 30 seconds
melee chase into pillar can be really dangerous
either killed or trapped for 10 -> 20 seconds without being able to do anything
What specs are you guys picking for 10.1 ?
since they announced huge buffs for sub and some for outlaw
What huge buffs ?
doesn't compenstate for the nerf
that is them buffing crit interacting specs specifically due to the crit nerf of 10.1 impacting those specs more strongly
it does not net make them stronger then the crit nerf nerfs them
its more like, the crit damage nerf hits all specs by 10%, but hits crit dependent specs by 20%, so heres a 5% buff to compensate

it does not make u any stronger relative to the rest of the pvp specs
it doesn't even the nerf we received out of nowhere a few weeks agoo
btw nightstalker fix when

did sub get nerfs? are u talking about the tier set tuning?
i dont remember it getting any nerfs
i mean the live version one
or wait u mean the 10.0.7 damage tuning way back
this "nerf" ?
yeah
I'm not following, or I missed something, sorry but
i mean ya that also sucks but no
to be clear, the buffs ur looking at are to compensate for the global crit nerf in pvp in 10.1
because sub is a spec that plays around decently high crit (cold blood, crit from symbols)
i know what you mean
Soooo, sub getting back on track nO ? I mean it is already decent
Just saying it's not huge
Ahh yeah ok I missed these nerf, didnt think it was THAT impactful
the problem is sub and outlaw are nerfed more by the crit damage nerf then most specs in the game
it doesn't even bring us back to here
which is why they got those buffs
it doesnt make u relatively stronger compared to other specs
on top of the cc nerf and crit nerf
Because babys complained 10 x times a days in forum and blizzard decided to nerf the class instead of locking the topics
like usual stuff
we had like 10 pages of floods in SL
people threatening blizzard
like absolut crazy the hate of rogues
70% ST -> 75% ST doesn't change much.
8% SS & Evis is good but
yeah because noobs lose to rogue no matter what
This is very very very far from huge
lmao there are like so many rogue counters rn
never thought about why it's only them dead
so many many many ways to counter them easily
bro i had a soloq game last night that was arms fury WW dh
those poor healers
literally just a meat grinder of 4 zugzugs zugzuging each other
Yep so we get elite mog on rogue and play warrior
all 6 rounds
Gg

Just zug kitten whole day
the game i was with the fury
we just double lept onto the WW and deleted him
the next game his partner types "this WW is trash doesnt even karma"
he did karma brother
Don't understand the whole point, with ret buffs, they want peeps to quit rogue ? and reroll warrior/DK/DH/ret ??

i mean yeah i get it, some 1.6k stuck rogues got glad on ret
they lack of vision.
if rogue was performing great, like sin before all the packs of nerfs
which makes perfect sense
you don't HAVE TO NERF rogue
you can buff counter of rogue
that's how people balance the game
they are doing the nerfs like 1990 games
I am not sure if it's still good
idk man the more i read patch notes and testimoneis i don't wanna go back in pvp lmao
sin is not changed, so it's not good
sry but getting shitwrecked and triple one shoted while trying to pvp again isnt fun lol
the thing is when you buff ret, rogue get automatically nerfed
there's no reason to double dip the nerf
you buff the counter, and meta rotate already
and you don't have to 'NERF' anyone
you missed the chat here weeks ago
yeah probable
we are all playing ret spec of rogue
before first weekend nerf, ret was like SSSSSS tier
ya idk rogue just feels like a teammate enabler in the game rn
while playing my ret or arms i feel like the anime protag
rogue can still play, but yeah it's more and more support
I mean, ret was nowhere near good 1 year ago, it was dogshit
like the worst dps ever
for 10 years straight from icc
the worst class ever seen in an mmo
not really true
and now it's s+, I give it 6 month before its C-
I mean, we are talking short term here
Ret was op for majority of shadowlands pvp wise
ret is strong, for now, so enjoy while it lasts
I disagree ret was worst
So I don’t get the agenda that ret was dogshit for years
I am not that qualified to comment that much but it appears lots of data show ret had good days
ret wasnt even dumpster tier early this expac lol
it was like low A tier
very high burst
they just overnerfed it to F tier
then reworked it to S++++ tier
fair trade deal
they did nerf it very fast i will say
dude, the first 4 days of rework was fun
very early in the season
Yeah early dragonflight , but that’s not “years”
Especially when it was one of the strongest specs in shadowlands
and the hours queue
Again, mark m yword, what are the odds that ret will still be s++ by 10.2 ?
It's suicide for blizzard to keep it thatway
we really dont know about future
could be 10.1 ret is already dead
could be 10.2 it becomes SSS again
who knows
There is too much complain on us forums reddit discords etc
They were op in 3 out of 4 shadowlands seasons, so it’s possible for them to keep rets doing ret things for more than one patch
They like have to do something, it's not like they have an option
They are way broken than they used to be in shadowlands tho
Then ret will be just s- or s decent
and everyone will quit and go back to rogue
and then next expansion it's gonna another one
like DH for BFA who was called the rogue melter
Yeah but you end up going back to your main eventually
I'm not a fan of meta slaving ngl
I think we play rogue for love
rogue feature and gameplay is too much fun
and rogue is top in m+ too if you care about pve
Then we play some other specs for not throwing away your computer
stealth is beyond any class
So it’s always gonna be rogue + 1-2 others
I wouldn’t be that sure about ppl coming back to rouge, the nerf to blind and the classes that naturally work well with a rouge, and no dmg buff to compensate might make some ppl to quit rouge at all
Yeah that’s really sad move
It's insane in pve thop, i'm coping but
We lose the signature tbh
rogue is as of now huge in pve
Yeah but imagine some ppl don’t play pve, I didn’t play pve but my friends quit pvp and I cba sitting 30+ min ques for solo
So for some ppl class boing good in pve doesn’t change anything
I feel like there is still a place for rogue.
On the forums.
ohno he doesnt know
i mean on ptr rn rogue is the worst class in the game arguably
all 3 specs are underperforming significantly
Copium inc
if you mean on live yea its pretty good
thats not copium thats raid testing brother
Well few weeks is kinda long isn’t it?
DW we are not gonna merge with paladin discord 
naaah no way other discords have rogue refugees
DW it will be fine relaax
u guys rly not playing rogue in pvp 10.1 ?
I mean I’ll try, but they nerfed our toolkit and toolkit of other dps that fits into rouge comps, that wouldn’t be as bad if rouge wasn’t build around killing while doing set ups
Now your set ups are shorter but your dmg stays the same so it’s even harder to kill. But yeah, I’ll try,
reckon they helped me with my ret alt
that is the reason we discuss about our alts w zugzug classes here
bvut imean efficiency*$
is zugzug and they just were posting gay pictures after being useless
they just gave up
If you are looking for new spec to play that is similar to rouge I feel like sub - ww, assa - feral, outlaw - fury
so rogue never got that bad ?
yeah we are crap rn

They owned the expansion
so hard
Hey who knows, maybe evoker will have its glory too
just be blown by evoker in a lobby
got a 4 range lobby
kinda new for me haha
playing hunter alt is a bit new for me
mythic plus is entirely designed aorund rangea nyway
you play melee you want to have a hard time
and pvp well melee
That’s what makes it fun
Game too ez
unti l you die every single time to a random cleave yo dont even see
no
not ernough
too much shitshow
too much annoying aoe, too much stuff happening
blizard dont know how to code a game they fired all their dev
Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion ig
Lmao I wandered through the discord and legit everyone is rolling lmaoo
Any of you guys have a good link to next season elite sets? Sitting here at an appointment and my phone browser is being crap right now
*picture not link
although I will take that link for future too lol
rerolling is so easy these days as mentioned
there's almost no cost
like i did a hunter from scratch to full conquer geared in just a few days
you can send conquer gear to alt now
but when you have 0 rate
doesn't change anything...
why does CP matter -.-
i just geared up my warr 3 days ago from fresh 70 to full geared
i even sent primal chaos to make the helm, a diamond and the boots
the diamond costed me like 7k btw
i havent go into a single arena in df
yesterday after a venting cuz i was ignorant w warr i ended doing like twice the dmg compared to another dps in the shuffle, ended switching back to bleed build
think i need to keep practising
but yo ufirst spam bg for honor gear right
if is ur 1st time go to AH and get the gear there
i sent chests w another chars cuz i played enough this season to afford gear
get what exactly
crimson aspirant's gear
It is like a step below honor gear
the bought pvp gear is like 200-500g per piece and is 397 ilvl in pvp
so higher then forbidden reach gear
can buy pvp set bonus right off the bat as well which is a big deal
yeah, if you plan not to leave valdrakken
i'm a jack of all trade, i do all content lol
Anyone curious if this shadowflame enchant work w dark brew
Wdym
who
what
well its shadowflame damage which is fire and shadow
so ig they are wondering if dark brews shadow damage amps it
going off how blizzard prevents trinkets and such for interacting this way id say probably not and if it does its unintended tho
It’s possible. Sub’s dmg modifiers have worked on items in recent past such as SL. But iirc they fixed a lot of those interactions so I’m doubtful.
Yeah that’s what I was asking.
sitting on like 9k conquest right now. time to buy a bunch of boxes and deck out my DK lol
some mage hit me earlier within 0.9 seconds with two 110k frostbolt crits, safe to say i got melted
wish this next seasons pvp gear had some type of shoulder glow. atleast the weapon illusion looks amazing
also has blizz released anything on the crimson legend 0.1% award? is it spec specific? so if 1600 outlaws are over 1k the top 160 gets it?
16
oh that is pretty nice stamina inc for outlaw
Less then 16 actually
yeah i mathd wrong lol
wtb more rogue updates please blizz
If there was 50k outlaw rogues, it'd be 5 crimson legend. 100k for top 10.
yeah so lookin like 1 outlaw getting it this season lol
aent no1 touching Nahj's 3300 or whatever ridic number he stopped at
im pretty sure its 3?
idk i checked some website with it for each spec currently dont know how updated it keeps
but it is spec based
and for outlaw it was 3 slots
for top 0.1%
1.6 according to the numbers he provided
pvpleaderboards website has about 1600 outlaws over 1k rating but if its every outlaw rogue then it may be more
I think it’s insulting they are buffing thief’s bargain when the talent doesn’t even work properly with vanish
How about you fix the talent and then buff it
seriously, monka TOS
when main gauche gets a kill or blade flurry it feels so good lol
201 to go for this elite then gotta get to 2956 to somehow get this legend title LOL
@quaint cedar You’re Kleever right?
It’s what we ramped up to in SL with Enduring Brawler. Now it’s baseline with no ramp up
This is pog
10% more stamina will be nice is that live for 10.1 or tuesday?
10.1
buff more death from above
Yes
Just saw the buffs. Loving the 15% stamina!
And no ramp up like you said
Yes please!
Noodle spree is a perfect name for it
Sad tho lol
I really hope that with the extra stamina outlaw can actually fight other melee again
And not get demolished
Also the Turn the Tables change is kinda nice. Still niche, but I could see using it against demo locks or DHs
Anything that spams stuns really
Might be good idk
Leans into the brawler aesthetic at least
Yeah for sure
I've heard some outlaw rogues already use it
Like some of the EU guys
So with it buffed might be really good
12 seconds is a lot more time to make use of it
And in solo shuffle you're getting stunned so much that you could have pretty high uptime on it
I’m already stacking saltwater potions with ghostly strike in random bgs
Just thinking of stacking those plus turn the tables now
Oh that sounds fun
Imagine how much damage killing spree will do with all those modifiers!
Jk it still sucks lol
(And ghostly strike has a pretty high uptime because it has cdr from restless blades, but you ditch a gap closer for it)
I wonder if we can make a reasonable build that gets both blade rush and ghostly strike
First thing that springs to mind is ditching float like a butterfly or gsw
But you want gsw to really capitalize on it
In my scrub experience anyway
Could maybe drop blinding powder since blind is pretty garbo in 10.1
Feels depressing to say that lol
1.5 min blind was always one of the benefits of playing outlaw, but 10.1 basically ruins that
i have been using take your cut the haste is actually really nice plus it buffs teammates too
Yeah that one got a longer duration too
And well, we don't have to worry about taking maneuverability anymore...
maybe ill drop smoke bomb in 10.1 for turn the tables if it is actually decent
I've never even used death from above before, I'm assuming the buff is not enough to make it useful right?
i think its pretty bad lol
maybe they could change up dagger in the dark because that would work with dance builds real well
They did rework dagger again, I think it's still useless tho
Still a stacking debuff
They reworked it, and then nerfed the rework
Oh really? Lmao
i might actually swap out smoke bomb for dismantle. half the time the bomb doesnt even work lol
Pvp talent choices could be interesting now.
Enduring brawler will still be mandatory.
The other 2 slots could be a choice between dismantle, smoke bomb, take your cut, turn the tables, and the new cloak talent (forgot the name)
Smoke bomb is clunky. Feels weird for it to be on the GCD. Sometimes I swear I'm spamming that shit and it doesn't come out
Maybe I'm just stupid lol
oh i forgot a bout the cloak talent. i feel like everyone gonna be using that
Currently running Enduring Brawler, Smoke Bomb, and Dismantle. Swap Dismantle for CIK if Dismantle wouldn’t be useful
Yeah cloak talent is going to be nice
Can use it aggro to get your damage out with dance and not get peeled
Or just use defensively of course
I'm thinking for 10.1 maybe run enduring brawler, cloak talent, and third choice would be either smoke bomb, disarm, or turn the tables depending on matchup.
death from above can be used to avoid ccs and jump to targets
if you cant get mastery on a piece of gear for sin rogue is next best haste or crit?
but yeah, is cringy since bfa
haste
maybe if is buffed to 50% more dmg can be good again lol
or at least 30%
I thought blade flurry already had a pvp modifier on it
outlaw needs a big aoe buff
Unless they got rid of it
idk but blade flurry def hit alot harder in SL than DF
Problem is blade flurry does damage to off targets based off your single target damage
If your single target damage is shit then blade flurry is shit
I think it hit harder in SL simply because outlaw in general hit harder
ya maybe
im not seeing any significant dps buffs for outlaw to make it good in 10.1
BF hits sometimes around 30-50k. if you pickup the BF talents itll hit closer to 40ks pretty often if you are pumping ST
outlaws best stat is crit and thats getting nerfed so not looking hopeful
Tbh the damage wasn't as bad as I thought it would be when I tested on the ptr during the last play with the blues
Still lower than other classes, just not by as large of a gap as I expected given the crit nerfs
At the very least seeing that stamina buff for outlaw gives me a bit of hope that maybe blizzard doesn't completely hate us
I saw that by the way. Man people are going to get so salty over that cloak talent
hey we can stay alive longer to make rounds last longer and still lose LOL
Hell yeah let's goooo
I'm sad I wanted to get the legend title for season 1 but then the ret rework happened and now I'm just parking my rogue
Well parking the whole game tbh haven't played in a month except for the ptr
Perhaps you need to watch the above video for some motivation
yeah we determined earlier top 3 get legend so u need 2956 rating for US lol
Oh you mean crimson legend?
yeah
There's just "legend" which is 100(?) wins above 2400
forgot about that one yeah thats one too
No way I'd ever get crimson legend I don't think I'm that good lol
I got 2400 in shuffle. My mmr was like 2500+ when I got it
So I could probably get 2500, maybe like 2600
Don't think I'd ever hit 3k tho
And forget queuing into ret meta lol
dh is hit or miss tbh in pvp
can be extremely good or extremely shit
better go warrior which is safer and as dumber as dh
warrior is always safe
blizzard never nerfs that class ever
guys I'm on the ptr right now and I have 684k hp on my outlaw rogue in pvp
that's nuts lol
so happy to see the stamina back
Vial is gonna be really strong
If unnerfed
Blind->gouge->vanish cheapshot still a long cc chain
Easy to pull off as outlaw
Or dance cheapshot
Healing in low cr range games are really difficult
man, did a quick 1500 CR hpal game
everybody is doing like 40-50K dps game
not sure if it's because nobody press defensive cd or just range dps is too high
does disarming ret do anything?
That 15% stamina buff is gonna be big for us
Yo whats up with the wierd outlaw build? From rank 1 and 2 outlaw

Saw they were running a sepsis build
which r1 and 2 @magic arch
murlok io will show you as whatever spec you log out as
doesn’t mean they play the spec at high lvl
also the top 2 outlaw rogues on murlok.io are from TW which is just wintrading
TW?
taiwan
What you mean freeze? You mean the end of the season?
raz, any hope for sub next season?
It’s at 10 pm a day before the patch comes
And patch goes live on may 2nd or may 3rd depending if your na or eu
In 10.1 are you all going for haste as your secondary stat as sub since crit will be giga nerfed?
Mastery then haste
Why crit will be nerfed? Also how many non mastery items you’ll get, trinkets, dagger, ring? The rest is tier set and full versa mastery + crafted boots with crit (assuming world pvp gear will have versa mastery belt and wrists)
crit is reduced to 150% more dmg instead 175% like RN in pvp
crit stat is not getting nerfed its the damage of crit
haste will still be useless as sub
i miss not hitting like a wet noodle in most cases 😦
Yeah exactly
sepsis is the hardest hitting ability for outlaw. it's a free ambush too
what did i say lol
these 17 minute que avg wait times are a blast
before yesterday i had one with like 40m
Maybe an annoying tank-like build of outlaw that all-in talents into defensives will actually be good? 
itll help us stay alive long enough in solo for the other dps to kill someone lol

and look at blizzard salary from glassdoor
